Omoluabi1stborn:


We only have port Harcourt LGA
Population of Port Harcourt is 1.8m
If I dash Ijaws 800,000

And I add it to 4,883,000
Total is 5,683,000


Cap..tain..8, why are you running away from me

Nah today today we go know ijaw population

5,683,000 + 1,182,500

= 6,865,500
Rivers + delta + bayelsa population = 6,865,500

CONCLUSION AND VERDICT

as at 2016
Ijaw population of 3 states (Rivers, Bayelsa, Delta) is 6,865,500

The ijaws are the water version of Fulanis. They are not even indigenous to the Niger delta region as their language is not unified nor related to languages in the area. This is an established fact by linguistic studies.

They came to so many places that they occupy today as settlers who came to fish.
Their minority status and low population is the reason why they have aggressive expansionists agenda and claim those who cannot understand them or related to them.

The only reason they made progress of this abuse is that they took advantage of the post civil war situation in Nigeria were the Fulanis rewarded them with maps that falsely expanded their territories.


Just like the ancestral home of the Fulanis is futa jalon, the ancestral home of the proto-ijaws is in coastal Ghana regions.

So many groups that ijaws say are not Igbo or ibbibio or Annang. But when those groups speak their native language, no ijaw man or woman can understand what they are saying.

Even some ijaws cannot understand each other groups language without pigeon English.

Ijaw case is like butter when this cesspit ceases to exist. For now allow them to wallow in delusions on nairaland and inflate their population to 50 million.






100% truth, Ijaw true roots is in Ghana!!!

Kindly list the local government you majorly based I heard its 5 in delta state

Nah today today we go know Ijaw population.
E no go pass today
3.5 million tops bros
Na 8 LGA Bayelsa wey una still dey drag with Urhobo, Ekpeye, Ogbia, Engenni? Pata pata you have 1.3 million Ijaws in Bayelsa excluding minorities. Maybe about another 1.2 million in River state. You have only Burutu and Bomadi to yourself and in Patani and Warri South-West you share with other tribes and these are the smallest population. Is it in Ondo state the population where you guys are found in the smallest LGA and where Apoi people are like 75% of the 150k population that made you 20 million?
are you so challenged that you lack calculation skills? Ijaw is never up to 2 million and only when you join people that you stole can we be talking about 3.5 tops.
Urhobos and Tiv without question (even without stealing people to boost their numbers) have more population than Ijaws... Building substandard thatch-roofed shelters on mosquito-infested river banks does not equal population oga.

well since u are delusional enough to believe, ur nairaland statistics is more accurate than wikipedia, why would I want to argue further?

U stay in ur one bedroom apartment and know the population if ijaw but never believed wikipedia that did thorough statistics to come up with their value.

To u, hypothetical value is more accurate than statistical values.
U really amaze me

I now see the reason why someone was arguing with his make believe facts that Dangote is not up to $8b even though someone brought forbse and showed him, he still want to believe his own assertion was far much more accurate than Forbes

in Delta and Rivers, they make a reasonable number while u can still find them in Edo and Ondo.

U should visit Rivers state and see Kalabari and Okrika

In Edo state, you can only find them in Gelegele, in other places, they are very very few

This is even a rough sketch yet we didn't deduct Non ijaws from those places.

Meaning they'll be less than the 7M self.

We haven't added Ijaws in Edo, Ondo and Outside Nigeria which overall can't be more than 1M

Like I told you I jaws 15M population is very High and false.

I understand bruv! I just posted an old comment I made analysing the population with figures and facts. They hid one, and this was the only one I could copy and post.
Ijaws can never be 7 million. Bayelsa is 8 LGAs, full of creeks and uninhabitable scantily populated swamps and not even an Only Ijaw state do not have up to 2 million people. 500-800k of these people are not even Ijaws.

LGA's do not determine number of people, some LGA's in Nigeria are even more dominated than some tribes.
No use LGA as part of argument, U can't assume Lagos population is less than Borno state even though they have less landmass

let's look at it this way, in SS region, Rivers state is the most populous with about 7m population while Bayelsa the least is 2.2, if u take the mean score, u will get a figure of 4.6m, multiply that number by 6 and u will come close to the number of people in SS region to be 27m, now let's assume Ijaw which is the most populous tribe in this region takes 20% of the population and this is very much deflated considering they are the most populous, they should take at least 30%, this peg the ijaws in SS only to be around 5.4-8m, now let's add all the ijaws across Nigeria and come to a conclusion, are u sure ijaw is not up to 7m?

Okay agreed Ijaws are up to 7M and even more.

But accept the fact that they are not up to 15M
Not even 12M
Even 10M (still debatable)
